A Brief History of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

“A contemporary martial arts discipline with ancient origins. The term ‘jiu jitsu’ originates from the Japanese ‘Jū’ meaning ‘gentle’ and ‘Jutsu’ meaning ‘art’; essentially, jiu jitsu embodies the ‘gentle art’.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu primarily emphasizes ground-based combat, employing principles of leverage, angles, pressure, and timing, along with understanding of human anatomy, to achieve a non-violent submission of the opponent. Diverging from other martial arts which focus on strikes and kicks, jiu jitsu concentrates on close-contact grappling holds, techniques, and the application of chokes and joint manipulations.

History The Brazilian variant of jiu jitsu emerged from the introduction of Japanese jiu jitsu and judo to South America in the early 1900s, evolving into a distinct martial art through the efforts of Brazilian pioneers.
